Building for the Future

Medical advances depend on exemplary clinical, research and educational infrastructure. As part of our dedication to our mission to care, discover and teach, Weill Cornell Medicine is undertaking two transformative capital projects, thanks to our $1.5 billion We’re Changing Medicine campaign.

Expanded Clinical Care in Midtown Manhattan

Clinical Care building

At 575 Lexington Avenue, between 51st and 52nd Streets, Weill Cornell Medicine is planning an expansion of its outstanding clinical care services with a new ambulatory care site spanning six floors.

The 216,000-square-foot clinical expansion – the first since the opening of the Weill Greenberg Center in 2012 – will house a suite of Weill Cornell Medicine specialists providing coordinated care in the areas of radiology, psychiatry, cardiology and women’s health, along with additional clinical care programs and clinical research.

Through the new clinical center, Weill Cornell Medicine will support exceptional patient services and provide greater access to New Yorkers with convenient access from Grand Central Terminal and three major subway lines.

A Student Residence to Enhance Well-Being and Academic Excellence

The new student residence, on the northwest corner of East 74th Street and York Avenue, is set to transform the living and learning environment for Weill Cornell Medicine students.

The $260 million, 16-story, 173,000-square-foot residence will be just four blocks from the heart of campus and will house 272 students in a combination of studio units and one- and two-bedroom apartments equipped with full kitchens.

Designed to enhance the well-being and success of our students, the building will include spaces for study, recreation, fitness and socialization, including meeting rooms, a fitness center, a multipurpose activity court and a rooftop lounge with an adjoining terrace.
